Chapter 456 The Old King of Chu
Only ten days after the Qin army besieged the city, Shouchun was declared to have fallen. The entire Shouchun, except the Chu Palace, was not captured, and the rest fell into the occupation of the Qin army.

Chu Palace.

The old King of Chu looked at Meng Tian, ​​the general of the Qin State in front of him, with neither sadness nor joy in his eyes. He was already very old, and he thought he would go ahead of the State of Chu, but he did not expect that he would eventually become the king of subjugation. Jun.

The name of the king of subjugation is not very popular. Although in the history books, one of the three most easily remembered monarchs of a country has the status of the king of subjugation, but the state of Chu obviously does not want itself to be known by the world. remember yourself.

"What did Mrs. King Qin say?" King Chu asked.

The Mrs. King of Qin mentioned by the King of Chu is Mi Ling. This King of Chu is not only the king of Chu, but also the father of Changping King Xiong Qi and Mi Ling. In other words, he is also one of Ying Zheng's many elders .

"Madam once asked the king to promise that as long as you can leave the Chu palace, you and your family will be safe." Meng Tian replied.

Meng Tian is very aware of the complicated relationship between the Chu royal family and the Qin royal family. For hundreds of years, the marriage between the two royal families has never been broken. To a certain extent, the complexity of the palace shows the closeness of the relationship between the two royal families.

But this relationship is insignificant between countries, but once it involves individuals, this relationship has to be cautious.

For example, the current king of Chu, if the other party was only the king of Chu, the Qin army would have rushed into the palace of the king of Chu at this time, but the other party was still the grandfather of the eldest son of Qin.

"King Qin agreed?" King Chu said without interest.

The war between the two countries is not something that can be affected by the personal relationship between children. Chu State is not surprised that Mi Ling can intercede for herself. After all, she is her own daughter, and she is also her favorite daughter, but the King of Chu does not believe in Ying Zheng. Will agree to Mi Ling's request.

Over the years, the King of Chu has seen his son-in-law very clearly. He doesn't think that Ying Zheng is a person who can be moved by emotion.

"Your Majesty agrees." Meng Tian's answer surprised the King of Chu.

He actually agreed?

Surprised, Chu Guo immediately laughed, but his old body was no longer strong enough to express his emotions heartily, so Chu Guo smiled feebly and said: "I never thought that this lonely old life would one day be able to die." Saved by that little girl Mi Ling."

After laughing for a while, the King of Chu changed his subject and asked, "I see, Mi Ling seems to be very favored by the King of Qin."

"The foreign ministers don't know about the matter of the King's harem." Meng Tian said cautiously. He had the No. Things, some people, are not something he can comment on.

"You are also cautious." King Chu sighed.

"I'm alone in this matter, but forget it, Chu State is no longer here, and someone must be buried for her. If you can't keep Chu State alone, you are lonely and incompetent, but you can't let the world laugh, you can't Let the people of the world think that the king of Chu is just a person who is greedy for life and fear of death, and the world must not mention Chu people. The first thing they think of is that they have a king who is greedy for life and fear of death." The king of Chu said without a trace of emotion.

If he was still young, he might really do something 'extraordinary' because of his own life, but now he is old, even if he surrenders, he can still live for a few more years.

He couldn't let the royal family of Chu shame the state of Chu just because he was greedy for those few years. The state of Chu has already been destroyed, and the blood of a general is not enough to make the world remember the bravery of the Chu people.

"The ministers will pass on these words of the King of Chu to the King." Meng Tian said solemnly.

In that instant, Meng Tian saw something in Chu Guo's old body that even many young people never possessed.

"Wait a moment, Gu is here to write a letter, and you can bring it to Mrs. Qin Wang." Chu Wang said as he unfolded a blank bamboo slip from the table.

Xianyang, Huayang Palace.

"Has the King agreed to Mi Ling's request?" The Empress Dowager Huayang looked at Ying Zheng who came to visit her, and asked with a puzzled face.

"Yes." Ying Zheng said.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't be like this." The Empress Dowager Huayang said.

Some things can be done according to one's own preferences, but some things can't be done. The Empress Dowager Huayang sees this very clearly. a good thing.

"Mi Ling has never asked Gu for anything. Now that she has asked, Gu can't refuse. After all, it is her father. Although this matter will bring some troubles to Gu, Gu still has the confidence to eliminate these troubles. " Ying Zheng said.

"Your Majesty..." The Empress Dowager Huayang looked at Ying Zheng in surprise, she could only see a faint smile on Ying Zheng's face.

The Empress Dowager Huayang hadn't seen such a smile for a long time.

She used to see this kind of gentle and friendly smile from Cheng Yu when she was a child, but as she grew older, Cheng Yu, who cared more and more about her dignity, no longer had such a smile. The Empress Dowager Huayang never expected , Now she can actually see it here at Ying Zheng.

"In the eyes of grandma, don't you only care about the pros and cons, not the feelings?" Ying Zheng asked rhetorically.

"That's not true." The Empress Dowager Huayang said with a little embarrassment.

You are meant to be like this.In the heart of the Empress Dowager Huayang, she thought so.

"The king of Chu is nothing compared to the state of Chu, but even if he has a heart, the king of Chu may not appreciate it." Ying Zheng said.

"What does your Majesty say?" Empress Dowager Huayang changed her expression.

"Not everyone is Han Wangan." Ying Zheng said.

A king has the dignity of a king. It is human nature to be greedy for life and fear death, but there are many things in the world that are more terrifying than death. What people pursue is not only living, but also the aftermath.

Even if a person like the former King Zhao still had the determination to die for the country when the country was destroyed, Ying Zheng didn't think that the King of Chu would choose to rely on his daughter's relationship to live a careless life.

Moreover, the King of Chu is already very old, and he still has a few years to live. At the age of the King of Chu, he has very little greed for the world. After all, the things that can be enjoyed no longer exist for him. up.

At his age where he already needs to face life and death, the fear of death has faded away, and now he cares more about his posthumous name. After all, compared to the few lives, the posthumous name lasts longer. Much, much longer.

However, even if the king of Chu must die, Ying Zheng must make a gesture, not only for Mi Ling, but also to control the royal family of Chu in his hands.

Compared with someone like the King of Chu, his heirs are much easier to control, because he has a good queen, Li Yanyan, who is not as good as Zhao Ji in terms of giving birth to a son, and her wonderful experience in other aspects does not belong to Zhao Ji at all. Ji's peerless queen.
